Default Deleting unused columns

An Excel worksheet has 256 columns(more in 2007 version)

You can cannot delete these columns. You can hide them or give them a
background color so it appears they are not there.

Is there a way to get rid of unused columns? It automatically gives me
columns A-L, and I really only need up to H usually. Deleting these columns
makes them appear again (it's MAGIC!), and making them hidden just makes it
look like letters are skipped.
